A film which shows the whole horibility of genocide (without any big bloody scenes of that) and how a nation have overcome that with it's generations.It's a film about true Armenian family values,about hope and love,about willingness to live and to create!!!

One of the best movies I have ever seen.
This movie is about an Armenian family who was forced to leave his homeland in order to escape certain death from Turkish army during Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Empire. This movie is a masterpiece not only because it is based on real happenings and that with the story of one family it represents the story of survival of the whole nation but also because it shows, in a very sensitive way, the life of one man from his difficult but happy childhood until the very heights of his successful career. It demonstrates that the care and unity within family are the cornerstones of the happiness, even when you pass through the hardest times. It is about the sacrificial care and boundless love of every Father and every Mother for their child. And nothing is more important for a person in his life than to make his parents proud and happy.
A touching movie about an Armenian family during and after the genocide of 1915
Turks say it never happened , they even imply that the Armenians are the ones who committed that atrocity against the turkish , The truth is until now denied but many people recognize it so do many countries .
It's a story about a boy and his family , how his surroundings were able to remain , in a foreign country among foreign people how they managed to make a place for themselves and were able to survive . It is a human story that shows a glimpse of the horrifying things that happened , but mostly it is a story about survival , re_birth , trying to make a new life , and carrying on with a legacy : the fact of being Armenian .

Deeply touched while watching this piece of art. Highly recommended to watch
Not only this movie is based on a real story, it also displays breathtaking scenes of bravery, drama, melodrama. It is hard to stay an indifferent towards human tragedies after watching this. This movie is also a story of one family-that bears wisdom of its ancestors to start a fresh new life in France.
Just watch and you will not regret.
